The year is 2276, you're an Old West bandit on Mars, and you're on the run from space sheriffs. You take a bullet near the edge of town and drag yourself, dripping blood, into a space saloon to hide. The bartender, a grizzled cut-eye, takes one look at you and pulls you into a back room.

Just in: everybody's always like "do you have an F3" and the answer is yes, actually, we have two. Ball's in your court, F3 wanters.
Just in: Fools who prefer an SLR to a rangefinder, no problem, we've got you covered.
Just in: buy this, you fool.
Just in: Did you know that they used to make cameras that take regular AA batteries instead of a $100 thing called a BLC-DB-A001D-5 that you can only order from Mississauga until they discontinue it next year?
Just in: it's not every day you get to walk into a store and ask for an "OMEGA OMICRON-EL" but today might be your day.
Just in: the Polaroid Spirit always looks like it's wearing a little accountant's visor, and I think it's fun to imagine a Polaroid camera doing its taxes.
Just in: 30 years ago, somebody bought this Concord 110 camera at McDonalds and then just decided "nah." Now it's your turn to buy this Concord camera at Camera Traders and say "yah," because eventually somebody's gonna have to open this package and it may as well be you.

PSA: tomorrow, Saturday the 24th, is the last voting day for the BC Provincial Election. We hope that you make a plan to show up and vote if you haven't already. Yeah I know. But you should still do it.
The great and powerful and does-not-post-here @japancamerahunter.bsky.social has typed up a bit of a warning about FilmNeverDie's recent crowdfunding ask. If you're thinking about getting involved, maybe give it a quick read first.
We've brought in a small selection of handy Peak Design bits: plates, strap adapters, Capture Clips, and Anchors in a variety of colours. We're not stocking the whole catalog, but if you've got something in mind and you don't see it here, get in touch.

We're a week away from @desertbus.org, donations are open, time to challenge chat. Keeping it nice and simple this year with something old, and something very silly. If we raise $29,999 before we start next week I will buy everyone working Desert Bus a Dilly Bar.
Lots more everything on the website:
Just in: The Natural Night filter works just like the sunglasses in the classic film "They Live," in that looking through it will reveal the evil forces that keep us down, except the twist is that everything looks the same, just with nicer light. Turns out it was us all along 😮
Just in: How do you do, fellow Content Creators? This Nikon Z30 is perfect for folks like us, who are always doing videos and such things for Youtube dot com and similar websites that we definitely know about. It records in 4K, and the screen flips around so we can see ourselves while videoing 🎥👀👍
Just in: if you want a Peak Design bag but you wish it had a big strip of Naugahyde on it for some reason, this K&F Concept could be the bag for you.
Just in: this Precision Design bag does not make any claims about the precision of its materials or construction, and there's a reason for that. But if you suddenly need a camera bag and all you can find under the couch cushions is $14, stop in and we'll hook you up.
Just in: a very handsome Realist 45 3D camera. Is it practical? No. Will you use it more than three times? Also no. But is it very cool? Should you buy it? Obviously yes.
Just in: hehheh do you like making videos? Now you can ask that question to strangers on the bus and you'll actually be able to follow through when they say yes, thanks to this Sony Handycam!
Just in: Is it a Rollei viewfinder magnifier, or the start of a great Leather Droid halloween costume? I think we all know the answer to that question.
At the risk of boring everyone with battery talk, these CC87 chargers are very handy: they'll charge by USB, so you can use them anywhere in the world, and they ALSO work as a portable USB power bank to top up your phone if you need a boost.
When you've seen as many leaky batteries as we have, it's easy to be wary of Alkalines. We've been stocking Lithium AA and AAA batteries as a less leak-prone alternative- and we've still got em- but the price seems to increase like every other week. That's why we've got Eneloops now.
There's more on the website, and some stuff that has sold before we've had the chance to post it here, so if you're not already checking the site on a regular basis, you might want to get on that:
Just in: we have ONE Fuji X mount lens right now. Based on how fast these sell I don't imagine it even matters what it is but for the record it's a 60mm f2.4 macro.
Just in time for Halloween, a Nikon Fish Eye lens. Next week we'll be posting a Toe Of Frog lens and I think there's a Wool Of Bat lens in the queue somewhere. Something for our witch friends out there, we see you, we support you.
Just in: They call it the FM2 because you say FM twice when you see how much it costs
Just in: we also have a pair of Nikon Speedlight SB-700 flashes. This is one of them! The other one's pretty much the same.
Just in: You're not seeing double, we have two Hasselblad X1D cameras available! This is a Mark I, and it includes a lens, and it looks like we're not gonna get a picture on this preview so that whole thing I did up front about seeing double was a complete waste but there's no way I'm starting over.
All right it's been a while, so let's do a few inventory updates. Just in: This Hasselblad X1D II, a digital medium format camera that proves digital medium format cameras don't have to be gigantic.
